Student meeting followed student meeting. Pierre-Gilles was present at the first of them. He was young enough to feel close to the students and to understand their demands — he even agree with some of them on university reform — but his status as a teacher inevitably put him on the other side, in the firing line. In any case, he quickly lost patience with all the ”sterile verbal diarrhoea”, as he described it, as he had at the École normale supérieure. “There was, in the end, a lot of foolish babble”, he maintained. --〈May 1968〉,《Pierre-Gilles de Gennes: A Life in Science》
